treo 650 connected to a laptop
One of my users is trying to connect his treo 650 to his powerbook for mobile web. Someone recommended this site to me:
http://www.novamedia.de/index.html It looks like a pretty informative site but I don't know much about mobile technology so I don't know what GPRS, HSCSD, and EDGE/3G speed is. I figured I would post in case there is anyone who has done the same thing I am trying to do. Specs: Treo 650 Verizon Wireless Powerbook 800mhz (no bluetooth) Any ideas or websites? Thanks!

ok...on the powerbook is there a way to make a new dialup connection? like in windows xp under network connections you can make a new connection and specify the number and user name and stuff..
if there is a way to make a new connection like that then here is the details on how to connect using the treo. i'll go out on a limb and assume he has the treo drivers on his computer. without the treo drivers you can't do diddly so if he doesnt have those i would suggest he gets them.. ok anyways to the juicy part First, the modem init string must be AT$QCMDR=3 Next, the phone number to call is #777 Login is yournumber@vzw3g.com (ie if ur cell was (212) 555-1212) login would be 2125551212@vzwg3.com Password is vzw hope this helps, any questions just post back!  i did this with my dell laptop and my lg vx7000 worked fine |

Wow snowsurfer thanks for testing it out. There is a dial up connection application like in Windows. I will try it out tomorrow and see if I can get it running.
Thanks!  |
